MHDDoS: 57 DDoS Methods, Cloudflare Bypasses, and OVH/DDoS Guard Support in One Tool
If you've ever wondered how stress testing tools handle modern DDoS protections, MHDDoS is one of those projects that packs a surprising punch. It's not just a script that spams requests. It ships with 57 different attack methods, including strategies to bypass Cloudflare, OVH, and DDoS Guard. That's a lot of firepower for a tool that runs on Python.
What It Does
MHDDoS is a Python based DDoS testing tool (intended for authorized stress testing only) that supports a wide range of Layer 7 and Layer 4 attack vectors. It uses techniques like HTTP flood, TCP/UDP flood, and more advanced methods like Slowloris, SOCKS proxy rotation, and even CAPTCHA bypass attempts. The goal is to simulate real attack traffic against web applications, servers, or networks to evaluate how well they hold up under pressure.
Why It's Cool
The standout feature is the sheer breadth of methods. You get:
- Layer 7 methods like HTTP GET/POST flood, CloudFlare bypass via dynamic IP resolution, and OVH bypass using custom headers.
- Layer 4 methods like SYN flood, UDP flood, and ICMP flood.
- Proxy support for rotating IPs via SOCKS4/5 or HTTP proxies.
- Customizable attack profiles with adjustable threads, timeout, and user agents.
- Bypass techniques that attempt to evade common WAFs (Cloudflare, DDoS Guard, OVH, etc.).
It's not just a one trick pony. If you're building a defense system or testing a client's stack, having 57 distinct angles to throw at it saves you from writing 57 separate scripts.
How to Try It
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/MatrixTM/MHDDoS.git cd MHDDoS - Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt - Run a basic test:
python main.py --method http --target https://example.com --threads 100 - For proxy rotation (recommended for realistic results):
python main.py --method http --target https://example.com --threads 100 --proxies proxylist.txt
Check the README for the full list of methods and options. The tool is designed to be simple to run but flexible.
Final Thoughts
MHDDoS is a solid utility for anyone doing security research, red teaming, or hardening cloud infrastructure. The sheer number of attack methods is impressive, and the Cloudflare bypass tricks show the author put real thought into what's actually used in the wild. Just remember: it's a stress testing tool for authorized use, not a toy. If you're building something that needs to survive DDoS, this is a great way to validate your defenses before the real fire starts.
